Look For – Too Many Organs

Performance Quebec 2007 English 0:06:33

Look For – Too Many Organs is a performance-based video, a self-examination where I am both doctor and patient, where plastic organs are revealed to the camera and their history linked to women of different generations. The spoken words used throughout the video are non-scientific, identifying fears and feelings rather than objective symptoms.
